Arsenal Set To Launch A Surprise Summer Move For Manchester United Star

Arsenal are planning to make a surprise summer move for Manchester United defender Jonny Evans, who might look to leave Old Trafford if German defender Mats Hummels arrives at the club. The Gunners need to add more defensive cover for their side with the hopes of winning major trophies for next season. Wenger did add a center-back in the January transfer window, as Brazilian defender Gabriel made the move to the Emirates from Villarreal. However, signing the Northern Irishman would be a tempting option for the French manager.

It was reported that the 26 year old would return to United’s first team against Everton after a ban for spitting at Papiss Cisse. Despite that he was left on the bench and may struggle to make it to the starting eleven, according to the report from the Belfast Telegraph. Louis van Gaal might let go of his defender if indeed he manages to sign another high quality defender for his squad.
